What size propeller is required to lift a 180 lb person 30ft into the air consistently? Also, how powerful would the motor have to be to lift itself, the propeller, and person?
The amount of effort required to lift a human being depends on several factors, including the weight of the person, their body composition, and the strength of the person doing the lifting. On average, it takes around 20-25% of a person's body weight to lift them, but this can vary greatly.
Generally, it is easier to lift a lighter human being. This is because the weight of the person is the main factor in how much effort is required to lift them. A lighter person will require less effort to lift than a heavier person.
The body composition of a human being, specifically their muscle mass, can greatly affect the effort required to lift them. People with a higher muscle mass will be heavier, but also easier to lift due to their muscle strength. On the other hand, people with a lower muscle mass may be lighter, but require more effort to lift due to their lack of muscle strength.
Yes, a person's age and physical condition can greatly affect the effort required to lift them. Older individuals and those with physical limitations may require more effort to lift due to decreased muscle strength and mobility.
Yes, there are specific techniques for lifting a human being with less effort, such as using proper body mechanics and utilizing the assistance of other muscles and body parts. It is important to lift with your legs and not your back, and to use the help of your core muscles and arms to distribute the weight evenly.
